I agree, but the topic had diverged somewhat.
OT, have you noticed an increase in superfluous downvoting? I'm not really complaining, just trying to figure out if I'm imagining it or if it's randomness doing its thing.
Since HN has become so much bigger, I wonder if the mods could scale down the effect of downvoting. E.g. make it take two downvotes to make a comment appear at 0.
- jacquesm 9y agoHappens all the time, I wouldn't worry about it, just ignore it.
- sillysaurus3 9y agoOk, I wrote a tampermonkey extension to hide the effects of being downvoted: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/9d681310f4714277a37832643c2d3b93 https://gist.github.com/anonymous/9d681310f4714277a37832643c... It removes scores from your comments and replaces your karma counter with "(9999)". HN is much more pleasant now.
- jacquesm 9y agoHah, that's a cool solution.
